The ground breaking Cerious
Ceramic Reference
culminated in the development of
entirely new technologies, both in
design and production execution.
Conceived as a tour de force of
acoustic and material sciences, the
C
CR project required a dedicated
production facility different from any
other ever constructed for the
production of high end audio
components.
Planning and constructing
production facilities from scratch
meant that a decision must be
faced, build two distinct production
areas, one for the CCR project and
another for products utilizing
traditional carbon fiber techniques,
or tailor all models to be
constructed exclusively employing
CCR fabrication topologies.

Delighted with the performance and
aesthetics of the original Too and
prototypes of the Cerious
would be left up to the design team
to research and produce working
models employing CCR techniques.
Their only constraints were to meet
specific price points and production
efficiencies. No one, including the
design team, was fully prepared for
what was about to be created.
